Nahab̯waki̱kyo baamu̱legi̱ri̱ hali Hamani, mwa kuwona bigambu bya Morodokaayi̱ byabba nibili na mugasu.

Hamani yaacwi̱ri̱ magezi̱ ga ku̱zi̱ki̱i̱rya ki̱mwei̱ Bayudaaya bensei̱, bantu ba Morodokaayi̱, mu b̯ukama b̯wʼAhaswero b̯wensei̱.
7 Ha mwaka gwei̱ku̱mi̱ na mibiri gwa b̯u̱lemi̱ b̯wa Mukama Ahaswero, mu mweri̱ gukubanza gwegebeerwe nka Nisani, Hamani yaateeri̱ho kukoma kwa karu̱ru̱, karu̱ru̱ kabeetengi̱ Pu̱ri̱. Karu̱ru̱ kakwo kaakomwenge b̯uli kiro, na mweri̱ ha mweri̱ kudwereera ki̱mwei̱ ha mweri̱ gwei̱ku̱mi̱ na mibiri, gwegebeerwe nka Adaari̱. 8 Mwomwo Hamani yaaweera Mukama Ahaswero yati, “Haloho bantu basaaseeni̱ hensei̱ mu masaza gensei̱ mu b̯ukama b̯wamu, baali na ngesu zitakwisana za bantu bandi bensei̱, basuula kuhondera biragiro bya mukama. Nahab̯waki̱kyo ti̱basemereeri̱ kuganyirwa. 9 B̯ukyabba ki̱ku̱semereeri̱ mukama, ikiriza kiragiro kiteeb̯weho kyaku̱bazi̱kya, nkwi̱za kuta talanta 10,000 za feeza mwibiikiro lya sente lya b̯ukama hab̯wa kusasula bantu baakora gu̱gwo mulimo.”

12 Kasi mwomwo beeta bahandi̱i̱ki̱ bensei̱ ba mukama ha kiro kyei̱ku̱mi̱ na bisatu kya mweri̱ gwakubanza. Baahandi̱i̱ki̱ri̱ kihandiiko nibahondera bigambu bya Hamani bi̱yaaragi̱i̱ri̱, baaki̱si̱ndi̱ki̱ra banyamasaza ba mukama, bamasaza bensei̱ na bayolo ba bantu bensei̱ mu ndimi za nganda zensei̱ za b̯uli masaza. Kihandiiko ki̱kyo kyahandi̱i̱ki̱i̱rwe mwibara lya Mukama Ahaswero bakitaho kilengeeru kya mpi̱ta. 13 Kihandiiko ki̱kyo kyatwali̱i̱rwe batumwa mu masaza ga b̯u̱b̯wo b̯ukama b̯wensei̱, nikikuragira nti Bayudaaya bensei̱, bato na bahandu̱, bakali̱ na baana, bakusemeera kwi̱twa, babasale kandi babazi̱kye mu kiro ki̱mwei̱. Mu kiro kyokyo ki̱mwei̱, kyei̱ku̱mi̱ na bisatu mweri̱ gwei̱ku̱mi̱ na mibiri gwʼAdaara, banyagwe neitungu lyab̯u. 14 Kihandiiko ki̱kyo baali baakukirangiira nikili nka kiragiro mu masaza gensei̱, bantu bensei̱ ba mahanga gensei̱ bakyege mwa kwetegekera ki̱kyo kiro.
